What is meant by the GIF format?

GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) was created by CompuServe in 1987 as a format for image interchange, particularly for basic animation and simple graphics, on the internet. It incorporates lossless compression as well as a small color palette of just 256 colors, making it useful for logos, icons, and low-resolution animation.

Who should use GIF?

It is best for animators, designers, and content producers who have light-weight animated images, memes, or simple images which they would like to share. GIF is popular on social networks and blogs for fast loading of animated images and short cycles.

What is meant by the PNG format?

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) came into being around the mid-1990s to be a royalty-free embodiment of the GIF format. Being launched in 1996, PNG gained a lot of popularity owing to its lossless compression and handling of image transparency, unlike the JPEG. PNG keeps the quality of images intact while not corrupting it with the compression artifacts, which makes it best suited for web graphics, icons, and screenshots.

Who should use PNG?

This image format is best suited for graphic designers, web developers, or anyone who needs clean crisp quality images with transparency. It is commonly used in UI/UX design because it renders clear images and transparency perfectly.
